Matt H Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Ouch. Dental prices are scandalous, probably to do with that fact that people have to do something about teeth when they have a problem. I consider it exploitation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozz Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Jeez, I lost my NHS dentist when I moved house and couldn't keep up with the appointments, fast forward a bit, cracked a rear tooth, went on the NHS direct website, searched for local NHS dentists, found one in swansea, saw me the same day for assessment. Booked me in for filling 2 weeks later, cost about £30! Not sure if this service is just for us poor Welsh folk though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I went last week and had some serious cleaning and scale removal done, cost £45. I have been looking after my peggies since that. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
